Who buys IRONCAD

Anybody who thinks in 3D – For whom accurate 3D models are more important than 2D drawings – People who “Create” in 3D • Innovative Modeling / Single Scene Environment Anybody whose design evolves – – People who need to change the design throughout the design process For whom flexibility is important – Dynamic approach to the design and development process • Innovative Modeling / History independent Companies who design & produce configurable solutions – Configured solutions for individual customer assemblies • Triball / Catalog / Drag & Drop / Smart Assembly Proudly distributed by CAD International www.CADInternational.com

What is a configurable solution?

“The design of unique customer specific assemblies where the majority of components are company standard component parts and/or third party components”

• • • • Companies whose end product is a configured solution to suit their customers particular requirement Companies who typically use CAD to design all the component piece parts and then configure these into an assembly This type of design typically requires dynamic Catalogs, Drag & Drop placements and intuitive positioning and replication tools. Customers may also want to use connectors to add design intent and rules to their catalog parts to ensure they are assembled correctly.

Product Overview

– – – – – IRONCAD • Creating data – A comprehensive 2D & 3D tool for designers and engineers to develop ideas, create products, detailed engineering design, document and present their work INOVATE • Concept design – A 3D tool for engineers to develop concepts and to collaborate and share their 3D data DRAFT • Documenting data – A Powerful 2D mechanical engineering drafting tool to enable draughtsman to accurately detail and document their work.

COMPOSE • Sharing the idea – A unique configuration tool, which can enable sales people and customers to configure assemblies and present ideas, using standard parts and components.

TRANS • Extending the reach – A set of translators enabling users to share data and work more closely with customers & their supply chain Proudly distributed by CAD International www.CADInternational.com

www.CAD.com.au

A Common Goal

– – – Common Data • All the products share common data which means that data can be reused quickly and easily both within the company, and using the range of translators, in conjunction with suppliers and/or customers using any mainstream design product. Common User Interface • All IronCAD products use a similar user interface which means that users can switch between products easily and without the need for intensive training. Renown as one of the easiest systems to use, the short learning curve allows anyone to become productive in a matter of hours. Common Design Methodology • All IronCAD products use Innovative Modeling which means that users have the freedom to make any change, at any stage, in the product development process, without the risk of corrupting the data Proudly distributed by CAD International www.CADInternational.com

Aligned with your use model

– – – – – – – Initial Concept Design • A flexible design tool, enabling users to work through their ideas and create designs dynamically in 3D, making changes as they go along.

Product development • The ability to design and change products dynamically and also to add intelligence, structure and design intent if required. Powerful for the development of variants and product structure or for creating mechanisms. Product Testing and Analysis • Built in clash detection, FEA analysis and the embedded design intent eliminate the risk of errors at the final production phase. Detailed Drawings and Product Documentation • Produce quality 2D detail drawings using a leading mechanical detailing tool; sharing its core data with the other products in the portfolio, ensuring full associativity between 2D & 3D at all times. Configuring Assemblies • Using Catalogs, Drag & Drop, and standard parts to create unique custom assembly models in the specification process or at the point of sale to secure a deal.

Presenting Your Solution • Photorealistic rendering from customer driven models. Walk through animations, pricing information and Bill of Materials are all powerful sales tools. Collaborating with the world • The ability to quickly and safely share data with your supply chain or customers, to involve them in your design process irrespective of what CAD system they use or even if they have no CAD solution in place.
